KCNK4 encodes a member of the TWIK-related arachidonic acid-stimulated two pore potassium channel subfamily. The potassium channel subfamily K member 4 homodimerizes and functions as an outwardly rectifying channel. This channel is regulated by polyunsaturated fatty acids, temperature and mechanical deformation of the lipid membrane. Potassium channel subfamily K member 4 is expressed primarily in neural tissues and may be involved in regulating the noxious input threshold in dorsal root ganglia neurons. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Naturally occurring read-through transcripts also exist between this gene and the downstream testis expressed 40 (TEX40) gene, as represented in GeneID: 106780802.蛋白别名为：KCNK4; TRAAK; Potassium channel subfamily K member 4; TWIK-related arachidonic acid-stimulated potassium channel protein; TRAAK; Two pore potassium channel KT4.1; Two pore K(+) channel KT4.1;基因ID为：50801；蛋白质ID:Q9NYG8
